Having gone sealed with the help of Ed's faq, I now need to have individual control of all my rooms down stairs. Why? Because my 84 year old mother lives with us and we need different temps in different rooms at different times of the day.
One option is underfloor heating, we have suspended wooden floors downstairs.
Another is this gadget from Caleffi, but I can't translate from the Italian (even with Babelfish) so I don't know if it can be used on a radiator type system.
